I am here just to be part of the NY automotive group and I am not a ricer on the streets. I don’t even consider myself a domestic tuner. The main point of this car is to have a unique look, which it does 🙂 and a GM Eaton S/C with alky injection down the road. Even with that, I would probably be at 210 hp and won’t be nothing to brag about. I’m like all of you, an automobile fan and like to drive fast when I can.

Sorry to keep populating this thread but the kit I got for this car was suppose to be a lip kit and I didn’t like the line showing and I wasn’t a fan of the grooves and blinkers in the bumper, which is the reason why I had custom built the bumper as it is now. It never was suppose to look like a face when I was photoshop everything. See for yourself and I think I made the kit look better by having everything molded and shaved.

I don’t view the urban dictionary as a factual or educated dictionary - I hope you are educated enough to know that too.

This car is a perfect example why you shouldn’t mod your car when you are poor.

It’s looks like my GTO’s retarded little sister.

That said, welcome to NYSpeed. Seems like you’ve got a good attitude. Really, if you just lost that open mouth splitter the car would be infinitely better. Most NYSpeeders still wouldn’t like it because the majority here hate body kits, but would be much, much, MUCH better.

UGH IMO If you have to question how a mod is gonna look dont do it, props to you for knowing it was a huge fail, but really how did you get through that whole project and not realize how bad it was, whatever your learning. and on that note, for the future if your stating a project with a grand am, that would be an automatic fail, welcome to the board and GL learning a few new thing in your times hear.

Not gonna lie, I hate the car.

BUT

I respect the work and creativity you put into it. On top of that you’ve got a better attitude than most of this board, often myself included. Stick around. We could use more people that don’t act like 4 year olds.

Have you done any interior work?
